Firewall management and monitoring tend to absorb plenty of resources in most IT departments. Technicians need to have a great deal of expertise to be able to deal with all of the latest threats. Unauthorized access to the network in your place of business can lead to costly security breaches as well as a host of performance issues. Devices have to be provisioned and upgraded to prevent this kind of problem from rearing its ugly head.
On top of that, firewall devices need to be patched in real time so that you never leave yourself vulnerable to any new exploit. Network crackers are always searching for new ways to get inside of places they don't belong. If you're not working to protect your organization around the clock, then you're letting them get a foot in the door.
That's why you can't leave your security stuck on autopilot all the time anymore. Policy and configuration sheets attached to your firewall's interface have to be monitored at all times to make sure that the right access controls are switched on. A close eye also has to be kept in traffic to identify threats before they do any real damage to the system. Your dynamic business environment demands nothing less. Conditions are always changing, which means your security configuration has to change with them at all times. And, this can quickly become overwhelming in organizations of almost any size.
Fortunately, there's a way to tackle advanced threats while greatly simplifying the overall management process at the same time. You can hand the job over to our experts, who can leverage their experience in the field to streamline and simplify your operations. Since each member of our team has worked in IT security for a long time, they've come into contact with many different types of networks
ExterNetworks surely has personnel who have experience with whatever circumstances you're dealing with, and this is good news especially for those who have had issues in the past because they have unusual configurations. Cloud-based security packages will bring your system into compliance with most standards if this is the case.
We provide a firewall management service that responds to security and device health alerts as soon as they happen. Our crews are always standing by at all hours of the day, which means you'll never have to worry about what would happen if something went afoul while your IT department wasn't in the office.
Firewall management is resource-intensive and requires a high level of expertise to prevent unauthorized access and costly breaches. For this, our firewall logs monitor all the traffic strictly to ensure all the flow on your network is legitimate.
If anything looks awry, then our automatic systems will perform an analysis as fast as possible. While human technicians aid them, these automated processes can analyze potential threats more quickly than those working in a regular IT department would be able to.
When an irregularity turns into a genuine threat, our experts can respond to it right away. By countering the threat, we ensure that whoever attempted to gain the access doesn't get into the system. They'll then flag the log file to make sure that the threat is out in the open before altering the security policies to prevent any further problems in the future.
Then again, using a managed firewall service is an excellent way to ensure that these kinds of issues don't occur in the first place. Our security experts continually receive intelligence from a global scale. Research from the Counter Threat Unit™ (CTU) gets fed to all of our security services. And, this allows our experts to strengthen policies and perform even more precise analysis of firewall log files.
One of the significant ways that ExterNetworks does this is through our Attacker Database listing. This listing includes an extensive compilation of IP addresses that are known to have been compromised and used by attackers. Each time our network security researchers identify a new IP address used by an attacker, they make a next new record of it in this database.
Updates are then sent out to all client devices that have our next generation firewalls installed on them. It allows us to put an immediate stop to threats on a broad scale before they get a chance to bombard a router or proxy with a large number of bogus requests in an attempt to bring it down.
Our services are useful for anyone who struggles with keeping their small business networks protected against the growing number of threats in the world. If you're looking for an affordable cloud-based method of managing your network firewall devices, then you'll want to find out more about our service today. Our experts can take the burden off your IT department and give them the opportunity to work on the projects that matter most.
